KEROSENE-BUBNER.

Application filed August 1'7, 1820.

To all 107mm it 'nwiy concern:

Be it known that I, ARTHUR E. TTAUO'K, a citizen of the United Eltates, and a resident of the city of New York, county of Kings, and State oi New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Kerosene-Burners. of which the following is a specification.

The object of my invention is to provide a burner which may be inserted into, an ordinary coal stove and placed on the grate thereof, or in any other suitable position, and will there operate so as to heat the stove in which it is placed in a manner which corresponds in all practical respects with the heating which is normally done by the combustion of coal or gas. A further object is to provide a burner which may be used in any desired environment for any heating purpose where it may be applied.

These and other objects are accomplished by my invention, some embodiments of which are hereinafter more particularly set forth.

For a more detailed description of my invention, reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation, partially in section, of my improved burner when made in the form suitable for a kitchen range which normally burns coal or gas.

Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same, the parts being removed to reveal. a structure that would otherwise be concealed.

Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 33 of Fig. 1 looking in the direction of the arrows.

Fig. 1 is a sectional view taken on the line 4l-4l-. of Fig. 2 looking in the direction of the arrows.

Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken on the line 5-5 of Fig. 1 looking in the direction of the arrows.

Figs. 6 and 7 show a modified embodiment of my invention suitable for taking the place of a gas heater at the base of a coil used for heating the ordinary hot water boilers of the house, Fig. 6 being a plan view and Fig. 7 a sectional View on the line 7-7 of Fig. 6.

Throughout the various views of the drawings, similar reference characters designate similar parts.

My improved burner 1 in the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 to 5 inclusive, is mounted on suitable legs 2 which are adapted to rest on a grate or any other suitable support and Specification 0i Letters ?atent.

Serial No. 484,096.

these legs support the body 3 of the burner which is preferably in the form of one-half a cylinder at the bottom with closed ends and its top is composed of three rows of burners 4t, 5 and 6 which are separated by two troughs 7 and 8, the trough 7 being separated into two parts by a partition 9, the purpos of which will appear below. The burners 1, 5, and 6 may be made in any suitable way but are pre ierably made of channel iron with the 1 anges turned down and united with the base 8 and troughs 7 and 8 and the web of each channel is slotted by saw cuts 10 or in any other suitable way, may be desired.

The partition 9 is placed in the trough 8 and divides these troughs into two parts as above stated, one of which is used to receive asbestos or any other suitable material which may be moistened by kerosene, gasolene or alcohol or any other suitable liquid and then lighted, so as to heat the incoming oil pipe 11, its double elbow 12 and the outgoing oil pipe 13 which runs from the double lbow 1.2 and parallel to the incoming pipe 1.1. This pipe 13 is provided with several lateralv extending stems 1 1, 15 and 16, each of which is closed by a plug and these stems project well into the trough 8 and above the inflammable material for a purpose that will appear below. The forward end ofthe pipe 11 is connected to an elbow 17 which runs to a regulating needle valve 18 controlled by a handle 19 and provided with a perforation 20 through which a hydrocarbon vapor is projected into the burner tube 21.

The preheating tube 21 has three air inlets, one a hole 22 above and adjacent to the needle valve 18, one through a passage 23 at the bottom or" the tube 21 and another through a passage 2% which comes in at the side of the tube 21 so that any fuel projected through the needle valve 18 receives an abundant supply of air from three sides. The air is conveyed in snilicient quantities to allow the fuel to mix at or near the opening 20 of the needle valve 18 and then the gas so formed passes through the horizontally disposed burner 21 and immediately over the center burner 5 and thence clownwardly and then forwardly and into the interior of the semi-cylinder 3 where this tube 21 is provided. with three rows of perforations 25, one row being on the top and one on each side. The tube 21 is closed at its
